Orchestra instruments are commonly tuned to match an A-note played by the principal oboe. The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra tunes

to an A-note at 440 Hz while the Boston Symphony Orchestra tunes to 442 Hz. If the speed of sound is constant at 343 m/s, find the magnitude of difference between the wavelengths of these two different A-notes. (Enter your answer in m.)

Answer:

Δλ = 3*10⁻³ m.

Explanation:

  • At any wave, there exists a fixed relationship between the speed of  the wave, the wavelength, and the frequency, as follows:

       v = \lambda* f  (1)

       where v is the speed, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency.

  • Rearranging terms, we can get λ from the other two parameters, as follows:

       \lambda = \frac{v}{f}  (2)

  • Since v is constant for sound at 343 m/s, we can find the different wavelengths at different frequencies, as follows:

        \lambda_{1} =\frac{v}{f_{1}} = \frac{343m/s}{440(1/s)} = 0.779 m  (3)

        \lambda_{2} =\frac{v}{f_{2}} = \frac{343m/s}{442(1/s)} = 0.776 m  (4)

  • The difference between both wavelengths, is just the difference between (3) and (4):

       \Delta \lambda = \lambda_{1} - \lambda_{2} = 0.779 m - 0.776m = 3e-3 m (5)

       ⇒ Δλ = 3*10⁻³ m.

Assortative mating changes ______ frequencies but does not change ______ frequencies.
andrew-mc [135]

Allele frequencies are unaffected by assortative mating, but genotype frequencies .

<h3>Assortative mating: </h3>

Individuals with similar phenotypes and genotypes mate with others more frequently than is anticipated under a random mating pattern in assortative mating, which is a mating pattern and a type of sexual selection.

<h3>Frequencies of genotypes:</h3>

A population's genotype frequency is calculated by dividing the number of people having a particular genotype by the overall population size. The genotype frequency in population genetics is the frequency or ratio (i.e., 0 f 1) among genotypes inside a population.

<h3>The frequency for alleles in biology:</h3>

The term "allele frequency" describes the prevalence of an allele in a population. It is calculated by calculating the number of times the allele occurs in the population and dividing by the sum of all the gene copies.
